If you’re experiencing suicidal thoughts, it’s crucial to seek immediate support. You can call 988. However, there is a difference between having a thought about suicide versus a plan of action. Many people suffer in silence, feeling alone and hopeless. Insight can help. Therapy provides a safe space to explore these feelings and develop a comprehensive safety plan. We focus on addressing underlying issues, building coping strategies, and connecting you with resources to ensure your safety and support your path to recovery. We may try individual and family therapy and have an in-house psychiatrist if medication can be helpful.

Shelby Willoughby
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
Drawing from my expertise in trauma-focused therapy, I approach the treatment of suicidal thoughts with compassion and understanding. Through trauma-focused techniques, I work with clients to process underlying trauma that may contribute to suicidal ideation and develop healthy coping mechanisms. Utilizing evidence-based interventions, I create a safe therapeutic environment where clients can explore their thoughts and emotions, build resilience, and find hope for a brighter future beyond suicidal ideation.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Suicidal thoughts and self-injury impulses often come from parts of us trying to protect against unbearable pain, emotional overwhelm, or feelings of worthlessness. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help clients gently explore and understand these reactive parts with compassion, reducing shame and building a sense of inner safety. Somatic regulation, mindfulness, and DBT-informed skills are integrated to strengthen self-regulation, improve coping, and decrease overwhelm. Together, we work on uncovering the deeper layers of distress and developing new ways to soothe and support yourself so that these protective impulses become less urgent and less consuming. My diagnostic expertise and collaboration with prescribers ensure comprehensive care when additional support is needed.

PSYCHe, PLLC
Psychologist, PhD, DBT-LBC™, LPC, PsyD, MSW, Marriage and Family Counselor, LCSW
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) was one of the first therapies to treat highly suicidal individuals on an outpatient basis. Because DBT considers suicide as the solution, not the actual problem itself, DBT therapists are focused on identifying the actual problems in order to assist with different, tangible solutions. Not only that, but DBT therapists are able to speak frankly about death instead of tiptoeing around it, treating patients with respect rather than patronizing with whispery tones and “concerned” looks. Within DBT, no person is treated as “fragile” and though the situation may be serious, we don’t take ourselves too seriously.
